Re: Tactical Girlfriends
Here's Dog, Mrs. Dog, and the pups. Far right is "noskeeper" - my some-time partner in POE, COD4, when I can drag him away from his 360. No good pics of Mrs. Dog by herself, she always give me a "camera face" to discourage such shots.

Thanks Birdie.. But who says I've kept it?? Ha!
They're actually all great, and 4 is easier than 3,2, or even 1. Oldest can baby sit for us now too...

Re: Tactical Girlfriends
Never wait for a posed shot. Go for candid shots to avoid the "camera face". I like to shoot from the hip, or holding the camera overhead, to avoid giving away that a photo is being snapped.
The hardest thing I find is snapping candid shots of my cat: She has sharp ears and can hear the auto focus.snooggums' density principal: "The more dense a population, the more dense a population."

Re: Tactical Girlfriends
Framing take practice?
Also, I think I might figure out that you're taking a picture if hold the camera over your head...what do you do about the gawkers who think you are crazy?
I have a cat, yet....hardly ever am compelled to take pictures of her.The hardest thing I find is snapping candid shots of my cat: She has sharp ears and can hear the auto focus.
Also.....post a picture of your lady.....and if that lady is your cat.....we still love you.Shhhh I'm being made

Re: Tactical Girlfriends
I've mostly used this technique at parties, where people are close together and it's almost impossible to get a decent shot from eye level. I started doing this with my camcorder, with the video viewfinder tipped down so I could see what was in the shot, but then I started doing it guessing the framing with disposable cameras with great success.
The trick is that we're wired as natural targeting systems, and can instinctively point a spear, gun, bow, and even camera at a target with a fair amount of accuracy without looking through sights. I don't recommend competition target shooting this way, but a camera typically has a wide field of view, making "spray and pray" quite practical. And a digicam has the additional benefit of being cheap to practice with. You don't burn through film making mistakes.snooggums' density principal: "The more dense a population, the more dense a population."

I guess I shouldn't mention the duct tape, then.

Re: Tactical Girlfriends
LOL, never made that connection! The Tylenol PM was for my sister, who preferred those to the morphine she was prescribed for hip pain. (She's since had a hip replacement that's completely changed her life.)
I guess I could use the ziplocks to pipe peanut butter onto something.... (I love that cooking channel trick of clipping the corner of a ziplock to use as a piping bag. Works great when I make deviled eggs.)
But don't you love what those blue boxes do to Harley's eyes?
And I can't help it, I gotta post another pic:
